Max Muncy

But you only know you know that Freeman only has a year left depending on whether he extends or not.

And then you got Max Muncy as well, too.

So, yes, it solves the position of need.

The price is kind of like where you kind of stop and you think, OK, is it really going to be worth everything that we're going to give up? Probably have to gut your your farm system.

10, 11, and 12 at third base.

You have Isak Paredes, Max Muncy of the Dodgers, and Curtis Meade, who, reminder, is with the Red Sox.

He only played one game and then unfortunately suffered a fractured wrist.

But yes, he is with the Red Sox.

Mookie Betts is going to play shortstop.

Max Muncy's going to play third base.

So nothing changes in the infield.

So left field is the one spot that's going to be a little different, I believe.

I'll bet on Freddie Freeman.

I'll bet on Shohei Ohtani.

I'll bet on Max Muncy hitting another 30 home runs.

I'll bet on the Dodgers being a lot like the Dodgers year after year after year.

And I just, I mean, he seems like the type of person who has a connection to the organization that is greater than money.

And we've seen this with Max Muncy.

I would say we've seen it with Evan Phillips.

We saw it with Justin Turner for a while, like Chris Taylor.

If Mookie, they could find somebody to, you know, move Mookie to second base.

Those are the spots where you look to improve like for 2027.

If you're looking beyond that, you got to start looking to third base as well real soon because Muncie's 37 next year.

Like there's, you don't got too many more years of being funky.

Shortstop is, though, Jacob Wilson.

until Leo DeVries comes up, and I think he, he should come up this year, we should put Leo DeVries and Jacob Olsen in our middle infield, I'll put Leo at second or third, put Gelof in there as well, I love me some Max Muncy, A's version, um, you know, we got a bunch of guys, Shayling, Gilear's best catcher in all of baseball, that sounds like a World Series lineup, all you need is some pitching, man, and hopefully the A's do it, but thanks for listening to Believe in A's, we'll be back again this offseason, and, uh, Leave a like, download, subscribe.

Go check out Beam City Sports.

That's where we talk all sports.

They don't even know about their own team.

I mean, if you showed them a picture of Max Muncy, they'd probably think he was the assistant manager of the Jiffy Lube and not the franchise leader in postseason homers.

If baseball puts a cap on anything, it should be the amount of Dodgers hats that are for sale.

Love it.

I was really happy we made that one.

And then Max Muncy, uh, on the dodgers to close this out so that those are all the names but steve i wanted to start at the very top with otani one one give me a minute on otani and the thought process here especially knowing miz went one pick behind and just overall opinions on this slot for kds

Yeah, it's probably less convincing than others.

I'm sure...
